the Repug's loudly righteous indignation, has reminded me of the first Cabinet meeting, where they went around the table outrageously kissing Trump's ass and thanking him for the great honor of being allowed to work with him. Something is extremely weird with this party these days. Hopefully Mitt really will snap out of it and start standing up for sanity. BTW, has anyone heard from Jeb Bush lately? Seems as if these "leaders" are either cravenly crawling around at his feet like Ted Cruz (how can his wife stay married to him), or have gone completely silent.

If the onion of republicant complicity should ever be fully peeled, many tears will be shed.

Collins: “What about our schedules?!?!?” Oh, sorry, you have something more important to do tomorrow than deal with impeaching the president?



And then at the end, Collins complaining about Democrats wanting to vote in the morning: “I’ve never seen anyone want to get in front of these cameras more!” ... as he stands in front of those cameras, meanwhile Nadler has already left.

You can hear various whining from around the room and complaints and statements that they never did anything like this....

I nearly died laughing when I heard that statement...I can’t even count the number of nasty tactics the GOP did as the majority wielding their power. It is truly incredible but they think no one remembers and they can play victim when they get a taste of their own medicine?

I think it was the right thing to end a 14 hr work day that was exhausting and emotional and to ask the members of the committee to get some rest and search their conscience (if they have one) and to then return to vote on one of the most important votes in their lifetime.

Incredible....
